Don't Touch if you haven't Prayed: Revelation of Prayer

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 (AMP)

Therefore we do not become discouraged [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid]. Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our inner self is being [progressively] renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]! 18 So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable.

Trouble - Trouble - Trouble
I can't say, I've ever met anyone who hasn't had it. 
Lord, knows, I have had my share of Troubles, Whew!
Nothing, will put you on your knees like, Trouble. I have learned and witnessed that even people who do not know God, will pray when trouble comes.
If they say, nothing but, "God help me!"

This passage of scripture, tells me:

•  Don't lose heart ( Be anxious for nothing Phil 4:6-9) the pain of it is temporary and, it is moving over for much better and and much more.
• Our natural circumstances are no match for nor bigger than my God Hebrews 13:5,6; Isaiah 40:29
• Regardless, of what it looks like on the outside, our strength is being renewed by God; These things we actually, face are not as big as they appear, do not  focus so much on what is                                                          going on in the natural.

What makes you go into a car dealership, store, to your mechanic or to anyone to whom you need to make a major purchase and, believe you can get it for less than their asking price? 

Reason #1...Because of Faith, you believe at that very moment that you can and, they will. You have no evidence of this. All feelings aside, you step out into that which you cannot see. 

This is the same determination needed to believe God:

• Through your Storm;
• For your Healing;
• Out of your Lack;
• And, for you Miracle

Reason #2...Because, we have God's DNA in us (having been created in his image) We can believe and, it come to fruition.  Right about now, the enemy is probably whispering "That is different."

NO! It is not! Remember, The devil is a Liar! 

All you need is a Mustard seed of Faith, You used more than believing, that you could get them to drop the asking, price.

I'm asking you to Drop your Doubt.

Don't Touch your Troubles if you haven't Prayed, 

We learn a great deal in this life...

We learn how to survive; 

We learn who we can trust and who we can't;

We learn from Trouble...

How Strong & Resilient we really are;

We learn to put out Trust in God;

We learn to go to Him in Prayer

I Thank, the Holy Spirit for being a Teacher and for this topic because, it exposes the enemy, 

You learn... You can't Trust the devil.

What you shouldn't Touch, is your Trouble yourself. Let God, Do what you, Can't. You do not have to Negotiate with the devil, When GOD will Fix It, for a Mustard seed of Faith. 

The devil brought the Trouble to begin with (YOU resist him!) 

God is that Greater Figure of Hope.

Read Romans 12:1-2; Ephesians 4:17-24; Hebrews 4:15

We make mistakes (You are not alone) We are not infallible! 

We can go to GOD; he is such a Forgiving God, you will never know if you don't go to him and, he will remember your sin no more!

In order, to completely recover from your Mistake/Sin you need to also Forgive yourself so that you are not bound by the weight of Guilt.

The devil will hold us hostage by our on guilt.

Be Free and Sin no more. Do not take his Grace & Mercy for Granted. #ICareAboutYourSoul You should too! #SistahSarah #NAG

STOP, PLAYING CHURCH!! The Other Church Hopper!!

Earlier, this week I shared "CHURCH HOPPING"

This is Part 2
STOP, Playing Church!!
THE OTHER CHURCH HOPPER!!

When you are Playing Church:
You not consistent in the things of God;
You are not Faithful;
You have no Loyalty to the Leadership;
You are not Productive;
You do not support the vision of the Church;
You seek after the things of the World;
You are not invested;
You have your own agenda, YOU

These are those who share the excuses in Church Hopping #1 (See Above) but, use these excuses to  Hop right back into the world but, when you find that you have tasted of the Goodness of Jesus. You soon find that you are no good in the world and no good in church.

Romans 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

Galatians 5:17
For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh.They are opposed to one another, so that you do not do what you want.

You are now trying to find you your happy medium of which there is none.
You cannot serve God and Mammon
Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

You have a desire to be saved on one hand but, get mad at the Preacher when you are told the truth;
You want to Benefit from the Blessing on this hand but, on the other hand you do not want to put in  the work; You are trying to live right  at church on one hand but, nothing to show for it when you go home on the other; You will hear the word and want to be elevated on the right hand
but on the left you can't stand to be corrected (You got too many hands!)

2 Timothy 3:5-7 (KJV)
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

I can't be perfect and imperfect at the same time. I am going to be one or the other. I am going to be righteous or unrighteous. I am going to be a child of God or a child of the devil. You are either Hot or Cold, pick one?

If you do not have the Holy Spirit, you are in-complete. Without the Holy Spirit you have nothing to keep you
 John 14:16,26

You cannot Trust your Flesh!!! (sounds like another Topic)
The bible says, Jeremiah 17:9 (KJV)
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

Who can know it? That tells me I cannot depend on my own flesh. We must die daily as not to entertain the flesh. The word of God is un-compromising, it will not compromise with the Flesh!!

WHEN YOU KNOW BETTER YOU SHOULD DO BETTER!!

STOP, PLAYING CHURCH!!

Ephesians 1:18 (AMP)
And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the [a]hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the [b]Saints (God’s people),

A moment in Prayer and a few weeks ago, and I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, “I will stretch my hand in the earth and set order! The sinner, will not inherit my Kingdom; The homosexual, will not inherit my Kingdom; The lukewarm, will not inherit my Kingdom; The unrighteous, will not inherit my Kingdom; Men of God conform to the lust of their flesh and to this world and will be spewed out of my mouth! I will stretch my hand in the Earth and set order!” What I saw in the spirit caused me to weep for those that are lost. The lost ones have been in my Spirit since and, I have been sending up prayers for them Praying his grace and mercy.

 If you are not saved. You do not know Christ. If you do not know Christ, you are LOST!                     You are walking in the dark because, you can’t see the Light! When you cannot see, it is because you are blind and when you are blind; you cannot see what is Right in Front of you and so you stumble (sin). Many of you have heard the word but choose to remain in your sin. Blinded Minds; Blinded Lives! This happens for a few reasons:
1. But even if our gospel is [in some sense] hidden [behind a veil], it is hidden [only] to those who are perishing; 4 among them the god of this world [Satan] has blinded the minds of the unbelieving to prevent them from seeing the illuminating light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Cor 4:3-4
2. But the natural [unbelieving] man does not accept the things [the teachings and revelations] of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness [absurd and illogical] to him; and he is incapable of understanding them, because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated, [and he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters]. 1 Cor 2:14
3. For the time, will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2 Tim 4:3-4
4. You have Free will. (It is your choice true enough just know, that you must live with the consequences of our decisions) 

See, you reject the word because, you are listening to someone who is a known deceiver and will continue to do so (Refer to The Devil is a Liar  http://virtuousviewpoint.blogspot.com/2016/10/the-devil-is-liar.html)
The enemy, that devil knows you; he knows what to use to keep you from church and, every time you try he will set a stumbling block in your way.  The enemy comes to Kill, Steal and Destroy this is his sole purpose. I want to shed some light through the Holy Spirit in your dark places to help you see. Christ is come that we might have Life! The enemy, will show you everything you do not want to Blind you from what you need. The Enemy knows how to play on your weakness, to keep you down we know people like this in our lives they know, exactly, what to say, to get us to do things (the enemy will work through others to keep us from God.)  
If you really, tired Jesus is the Christ the Savior.
Stop, walking in the Dark you do not want to bumping into the same walls.

It’s time to get free #ICareAboutYourSoul
You can’t stop smoking? 
You can’t leave an abusive relationship? 
You can’t stop drinking? 
Drugs and want to stop but can’t? 
That is the enemy at work in your life trying to keep you bound? This is how he keeps you from being delivered because once you are set free he must lose his hold on you and if you continue to resist him he must flee.

Thank You, Holy Spirit!!

Help others with your Wisdom Intact

Why should I be discouraged?  When I put my Hope in God.

 When we take on a responsibility God never gave us, it can become too heavy a burden to bear. 

If you’re in the habit of Helping People, you soon realize they don’t always respond 

or behave in the way  with which you’d like. We end up pulling out of ourselves more than we would like to for longer than we like.

And, we get Burned out. When God wants you to do something, 

he supplies the Energy, Endurance, Patience and Perseverance to do it...

There is No Burn Out!! He will also, Release you in his timing.

And that’s the case whether it’s your children, your friends, your family, 
church members, neighbors or the people you work with.  

When we know we have done what God told us to do, We need to trust him to do what we can't do. 
We can help people out of the Goodness of our hearts But, we need to Seek  God direction 
as to How much, How long and in What ways to help others. 
When we take on responsibilities God didn't give us we cannot get upset over not being 
able to control the outcome. 
When we have done our part, Let go and let God do his. 

Phil 2:13

13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

CHURCH HOPPING!

Church Hopping is Revelant in Todays Church

People tend to Avoid this Subject: Not Today!

Why do People Church Hop??

Reason 1:
They do not take the time for Growth or to Establish Roots. Ps. 92:12-13

Reason 2:
They Do not connect to the Vision/Direction of the Church. Heb. 12:15

Reason 3:
Running from the Truth!! They do not like correction or respect Authority. They have itching ears 2 Tim 4:3-4

Reason 4:
They are Sensitive Saints and get offended (feelings hurt) over every little thing. Prov. 18:19
 Low self-esteem.

Reason 5:
They have their own Agendas. 
a.) Came to church looking for a Man/Woman instead of God.
b.) They feel they are called, into the Ministry. They want to preach.
When it doesn't work out their way they leave.

Reason 6:
They Lost their Zeal for the things of God 2 Tim 4:10

Reason 7:
They are not completely Delivered and no desire to be. Sin is the Dominating factor in their lives.

If you cannot commit to a church; How can you commit to God??

*Careful, 
You may not know, What you may be Hopping into! Or, Who is Hopping into your Church.
